    Using Crystal runtime to get datasource name

    We have around 700 Crystal report files (using Crystal 2008). I'm looking for a way to use the Crystal runtime to iterate through all 700 rpt files to list all datasource names (including subreports). While searching for a solution, all I see are posts on how to change the...

    Bedroom SUIT?

    There's a television commercial for a local furniture store that advertises a bedroom suit for sale. Shouldn't it be a bedroom suite? Or is a bedroom suit also acceptable?

    PDF Export formatting issues

    We have 3 reports created in Crystal Reports 2008. We have a batch process created in VB.NET that passes parameters to these reports and saves the reports to PDF format. The resulting PDFs look fine on development computers, but when we deploy the batch process application and reports to the...

    Crystal Reports select statement

    I have a colleague who is working with an application that dynamically passes the dataset to a crystal report. He does not have access to the application's source code, but does have design access to the crystal report. Is there a way for him to get the where clause from the report? The data...

    Datagrid (or GridView) layout - is this possible?

    Working in Visual Studio 2010 I have a asp:DataGrid that has 5 data-bound columns. The last of these columns contains data from a comment field, so there is potentially a lot of text to be displayed there. I was wondering if I could have the first 4 columns display on the first line, each...

    Punography

    I tried to catch some Fog. I mist. When chemists die, they barium. Jokes about German sausage are the wurst. A soldier who survived mustard gas and pepper spray is now a seasoned veteran. I know a guy who's addicted to brake fluid. He says he can stop anytime. How does Moses make his tea...

    Printing extra blank page

    Using CR 2008 We have a few reports that are sent to an external vendor, who prints them and mails them out. These reports all fit on one page when we test them locally, but when the vendor prints them out, they get a blank 2nd page. We don't have "New Page After" checked in any of the report...

    Sum function needs to handle nulls

    The query for my report passes back two numeric fields that are used in a grand total in my report footer. In most cases, I am getting back 3 records, and I get the sum of each in my report footer, then add those two sums together to get my grand total (SUM({FieldA}) + SUM({FieldB})). The...

    We are in the process of completing an Android application and should be ready to submit it to Google Play in a couple of weeks. Has anyone on here submitted anything to Google Play? If so, what was your experience? Were there any issues that came up in the process that you didn't plan for...

    Crystal report error

    Using CR 2008. We have several reports that use a TOTEXT function wrapped around a varchar field returned from our DB. In some of the reports, this TOTEXT formula is using "#" as the 2nd parameter, and it seems to be causing an error (TOO MANY ARGUMENTS HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO THIS FUNCTION). I'm...

    Using CSV file for input - Specific letter being dropped from data

    I am using VB.NET 2010 and Coded UI Tests. I am using CSV files for input to my test methods. For one particular field in my CSV file, I am passing a string of letters and numbers. For some odd reason, the code is dropping the capital S from this field when it pulls in the value. I have not...

    Effective date of resignation

    In a resignation letter, when it is stated that the resignation is effective on a specific date, does that date represent the last day of employment, the start of the two week notice, or the first day on the new job?

    Which is the left side?

    I don't know if this story has hit the national wires, but locally, the big story is the search for a missing Purdue student. The various news articles, in giving a description of the teen's car, says that it is highly dented on the left side. Now I see that the family's facebook page and the...

    Text being cut off

    I'm using a report that I have developed in CR XI R2. This report displays several fields, including a description field that normally includes a lengthy paragraph. This field's formatting is set to "Can Grow" with the max set to 0 (so there is no limit on number of lines). When I run the...

    On-Sight???

    I saw a service van for "Nerds On Call" (a computer repair service) on the highway today. As I passed the van I glanced at the back window and saw some advertising text that read On-sight service. I'm thinking that is wrong, and should read On-site service. Is the use of On-sight acceptable here?
